Festive portable deals take off from Xbox Ally, Nintendo, PlayStation and Evercade

This page started for black Friday but has moved on as the deals come and go. I will update across the festive sales, as new portable hardware deals appear. I won't hype them as "pocket change" or "fire sale" like some sites, because that's bollocks.  December deals :  Evercade has 30% off various hardware, depending on the store, check the blog for details .  PlayStation Portal is currently £20 off on Amazon UK  (another £10 off for refurbs)  Update: Valve has jumped in with 20% off the Steam Deck LCD 256GB model (down to £279 in the UK) Update: Xbox Ally has various deals (pretty short-lived, but likely getting cut again for the post Christmas sale).  Update: PlayStation Portal has £20 off the range, bringing the white and black models down to £179, and 30th Anniversary Edition to £189. (Look out for another 5% off at checkout!)  First up is  Evercade offering a clutch of offers on hardware and games on Amazon and across other stores in Europ...

Titan Attacks doing well on Vita, sequel beckons

An interesting Twitter chat, that started off with Curve talking about 5X sales on PS4 over PS3 for its latest publishing effort, Puppygames' Titan Attacks, also reveals that the game, released last week, is doing pretty well on the little old Vita.

The power of Cross Buy also gets a nod, and Curve notes that it will keep its games off PS+ for a long time, to keep people from not buying their games. The game is, what some might think, pretty pricey for a retro shooter, £7.63 (with PS+ discount) or £8.49, proving gamers will pay for good value titles. That alone should keep indies coming to PlayStation and Vita, rather than sacrificing a good game to the 69p pile-em-high hell of iOS/Android.


The game's sequel, Revenge of the Titans shouldn't be too far off and we hope it continues to do well on the Vita to keep the handheld in Curve's mind when it comes to choosing the platforms for its next projects.
